Joe Explained

[Taurus]

The Cluster B personality disorders of the DSM-IV include the antisocial, borderline, histrionic, and narcissistic personality disorders. While none of these are a perfect description of the typical troll's behavior, they do share features with the troll.

First of all is the antisocial personality disorder, also known as psychopathy or sociopathy. Antisocial behavior includes some of the following elements:

Failure to conform to social norms
Deceitfulness, as indicated by repeated lying, use of aliases, or conning others for personal profit or pleasure
Consistent irresponsibility
Lack of remorse, as indicated by being indifferent to or rationalizing having hurt, mistreated, or stolen from another
Narcissism is the ego unbound. The DSM-IV describes the narcissistic personality disorder as, "A pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy, beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts...." Some indicative behavior are these:

Has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
Has a sense of entitlement, i.e., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
Is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
Lacks empathy: is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
Shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes
Some elements of the histrionic personality disorder, a disordered personality exhibiting an excessive need for attention, also manifest themselves in trolls:

Is uncomfortable in situations in which he or she is not the center of attention
Interaction with others is often characterized by provocative behavior
Has a style of speech that is excessively impressionistic and lacking in detail
What the Cluster B personality disorders have in common is manipulative behavior, a lack of empathy, and self-centeredness. What separates trolls from typical people with Cluster B personality disorders is a form of social aversion or fear of identification that prevents them from acting out their self-centered behavior in less anonymous places. The result is that these needs are satisfied on the Internet. Here are my criteria for the Internet Troll Personality Disorder:

The Internet Troll Personality Disorder is characterized by attention-seeking and disruptive behavior in anonymous, delocalized places of socializing. It is indicated by the following traits:

A tendency to make provocative comments to invoke emotional responses in others
A lack of connection to the community being trolled; i.e., will leave if desired response is not invoked ("Do not feed the trolls!")
A dissatisfaction with one's life and a cynical attitude towards things in general
A tendency to challenge the rules and authorities of a community
A preference to exhibit these behaviors only in places where one's true identity is unknown
Disclaimer: It takes a qualified professional to diagnose anyone with a personality disorder.

The sad thing is that he thinks we talk about him because he is in our heads when it's because he has become a caricature of himself. We laugh AT him because he represent all the idiots we have dealt with. He is their representative.

Go out there and Google joesgulfstream (yes he is stupid enough to use it everywhere) and look at the pathetic discussions all over the Internet. There are some real intersting ones, see if you can find the same dirt I have on him.

Sorry Joe, I know I used some big words here, just "thank" this post if I need to dumb it down for you.

That's what I thought Joe, too many big word for your shriveled up brain to grasp. This is as simple as I can put it;



Wish you could post your thoughts, but there is no way we could have an intelligent conversation with you being impaired and all. Your are such a maroon, you are an idiot on this forum, on CF and all the others, including the home decorating and pop culture website you frequent. You are a little on the needy side aren't you? Does it suck not having friends or being allowed to post on sites where you have burned your bridges? Is it hard to sleep at night knowing soooo many people are laughing at you? How's the E.D. coming along, getting any better? I guess that's all you can expect at your age. That and delusions, which you have many. Have you stolen anyone else's pic lately to come up with a new identity so you can get back on one of the many forums that have kicked you off? Do you feel like a sleazy low life every time you have to create a new screen name because you've been found out again? Can't your neighbor, the president of the Internet help you out? Why won't you post to defend yourself? Are you afraid? Are you just too old and tired to get the strength up?

Cao, now I'm done with you..............
